“I give Miamisburg a tremendous amount of credit,” coach Brian White said. “Their kids came in and played really hard. I don’t know how much offense we truly established. Obviously, we were benefactors of big plays and some gifts on their part. I thought they made some mistakes along the way that we were able to take advantage of. We’ll take that win anytime.”
